The Ardex UI 720™ Flexbone® Floating Uncoupling Membrane

The Ardex UI 720™ Flexbone® Floating Uncoupling Membrane is a revolutionary, loose-laid floating system that provides true 100% uncoupling. Not bonded to the substrate, Ardex UI 720™ Flexbone® delivers significant installation time, labor and material cost savings. It has a unique, flexible bone-shaped pattern with GripLock Technology for the highest levels of tensile and shear strengths. The ideal solution for going directly over problem substrates and provides no hassle installation, removal and re-installation for frequently changed floors.

Bosti-SetTM by Bostik, Inc.

Bostik, Inc. presents Bosti-SetTM, a premium adhesive and sound reduction membrane created specifically for thin porcelain tile panel installations. Offering unprecedented, instant grab and holding power, with just a single coat of adhesive on the back of the panel, wall installation is now faster and easier. Outstanding workability allows panels to be repositioned for up to 30 minutes with no slip or sag. The patent-pending Bosti-SetTM is significantly lighter in weight, with much greater coverage than typical mortars. It contains zero VOC’s and contains 2% recycled material.

RedGard® Uncoupling Mat by Custom® Building Products

Designed to be compatible with polymer-modified thin-set mortars in accordance with TCNA guidelines for the installation of today’s tile types, RedGard® Uncoupling Mat by Custom® Building Products is an environmentally friendly crack isolation, waterproofing and vapor management membrane for tile, porcelain and natural stone installations over most substrates, including oriented strand board (OSB), plywood and concrete. Lighter than traditional backer boards, it requires no dry time so flooring contractors can complete projects quickly and easily.

9235 Waterproofing Membrane by Laticrete

The Laticrete® 9235 Waterproofing Membrane is “the industry standard” for wet areas and continuous water submersion applications. Specifically designed for the special requirements of ceramic tile, stone and brick installations, it also protects concrete and reinforcing steel from corrosion. The 9235 Waterproofing Membrane is flexible, easy to apply and will allow for rapid installations.

Mapeguard UM by Mapei

Mapeguard UM is a lightweight, waterproofing and vapor pressure-equalizing underlayment membrane from Mapei. It provides crack suppression for use under ceramic tile and stone installations, for both residential and commercial applications. Mapeguard UM is designed to perform over challenging substrates, such as young concrete and single-layer 3/4-inch (19 mm) plywood subfloors with joist spacing of up to 19.2 inches (49 cm) on center. The unique engineered tri-layered design of Mapeguard UM absorbs lateral stress from the substrate without transferring the force to the tile or stone.

Prova Flex-Heat® by M-D Pro

Prova Flex-Heat® from M-D Pro provides the ultimate versatility in tile underlayment. Featuring a deep locking channel design suitable for multiple sizes of heating cables, it is 6mm thick to aid in transitions up to higher surfaces like hardwood. The exclusive Vapor Management and Shear Stress Control® systems provide unsurpassed quality in anti-fracture and uncoupling that is designed to outperform the competition. Prova Flex-Heat has versatile heating cable capabilities, ideal 3-inch cable spacing for heat distribution, an “extra heavy” rating over concrete by TCNA, and superior point load distribution.

Super SAM® 125 by NAC Products

Super SAM® 125 by NAC Products is an approximately 1/8-inch-thick, sound deadening sheet membrane designed to reduce airborne (STC) and impact (IIC) sound transmission in applications without a sound rated ceiling assembly (SRCA). Super SAM® 125 can be used over concrete (IIC 51 and STC 54) or wood (IIC of 56 and STC 61) substrates and also provides up to 3/8 inch of crack isolation protection. It is the perfect solution for applications requiring integrated sound abatement such as apartments, condominiums, multi-level hotels, high-rise office buildings and other areas needing sound reduction.

GreenSkin Flooring’s underlayment membrane by Pearl Abrasive

Made in the U.S. from recyclable material, GreenSkin Flooring’s underlayment membrane by Pearl Abrasive is a high-strength watertight membrane that adheres directly to virtually any substrate. It’s 40% lighter than typical noxious asphalt underlayments and features a fast peel-and-stick primer-less installation process that saves you time and money. Installation is quick and easy. First, wet mop clean to prepare surface. There is no need to prime. Second, remove backing and GreenSkin adheres directly to substrate. Third, lay thin-set and flooring directly on GreenSkin.

Ditra-Heat-Duo uncoupling membrane by Schluter-Systems

Controlling impact sound through floor-ceiling assemblies in multi-story construction can present challenges, particularly with hard surface tiles. Sound control materials tend to be compressible and not all provide adequate support for the tile covering. Ditra-Heat-Duo uncoupling membrane from Schluter-Systems reduces sound transmission, in addition to warming the floor and still supporting the covering for a lasting installation. ASTM E2179 testing shows Ditra-Heat-Duo produced an increase in impact insulation class (ΔIIC) of 20 to a concrete slab floor-ceiling assembly.
